Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) install fails

I am trying to install some Dymo label maker software. As part of the install it installs both Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) and " Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x64).

For some reason each time it tries to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) I get the error message-


I have tried installing several times and each time get this same message. I also tried a clean boot to install. Same thing. Can someone help?

Have you tried to uninstall Visual C ++ 2013 before installing the program?

I had not. I assumed it would not try to install it if it was already present. This is a computer at work. I can check that Monday.

Try installing it first.

Download Visual C++ Runtime Installer (All-In-One) - MajorGeeks

Then reboot and run a windows update check and update any VC++ runtime updates/ security updates that may or mmay not show up.

Then install your program.

Can you explain the runtime installer? It does not reference that 2013 nor X86 version that is failing for me.

Also what are you installing? Is it on this list?

The whole story- I am installing Dymo software that must be installed to work with Thriftcart for label generation. So, specific Dymo software (I believe to be an older version) must be installed, so the Thriftcart labels are formatted and print correctly. I can attest to installing and running this software successfully on 2 other Win10 PCs.

When I used the latest Dymo software the labels printed wrong. When I changed to this software as instructed by Thriftcart the labels printed correctly.
HERE is the link for the file DLS8Setup.8.7.3.exe. I would have attached it, but is shows as 162MB.
